FitFlops

In my quest to get rid of scraps of paper (short of just chucking them all out), I need to make note of a shoe that someone (my dental hygienist) recommended. I finally went online to see what "FitFlops" are all about . . . and I am way too cheap to even try them. The concept intrigues me - biomechanically designed and built shoes to support feet comfortably. Now, if the prices are ever a half to a third less than what I saw on their website, I may just buy a pair!

Maps and Curiosity

I'm not sure my blog is the best place to put this, but I find things like this to be interesting and don't want to "lose" it. The maps at this site are odd, interesting, and thought-provoking. I like this page, although I'm not sure how accurate the information is (and I don't care one whit about Ludacris . . . ). I love being curious and wanting to learn. Enjoy the maps!

Kindness

Back in July, I had a dental appointment. When my hygienist, Brooke, asked how I was, I told her that things had been difficult. As I shared about Sam's accident and Nick's distance from me emotionally, I teared up. She was so kind and compassionate. She shared about her brother-in-law's SCI and the hard work he had to regain what he lost. A few weeks later, a card came in the mail. It was so very sweet of her to connect like that. She and others have blessed me so much with kindness.
